Susan Hayward's performance waa great, She was a great actress. This is just such an amazing film and a great example of how alcoholism is dangerous for a family. I rarely like films from the 1940s, but this was a great drama filled with a lot of good actors and the score was great, I love this film.

For a movie called The Story of a Woman an upsetting amount of this films runtime is spent on MEN SINGING
